Follow Sandmonkey on Twitter

  Who Sandmonkey, internet hero and Egyptian blogger extraordinaire, is is explained here. You can follow him on Twitter here. Once again, words that are coming out of a revolutionary and evolutionary situation are emerging through the social media. Perhaps you have not understood the significance of Facebook and Twitter until now. Following Sandmonkey on Twitter and the Iranian resistance on Facebook reveal their importance.
  FYI, no one cares about your Taco Bell tweet.
  This is real.
UPDATE:
Weekly Standard has more on Sandmonkey:

Over the last several years, our brother-in-blogging in Cairo, the Egyptian Sandmonkey, has made a name for himself as one of the Middle East’s most irreverent commentators. Anti-anti-Bush and anti-anti-Zionist, his free-wheeling blog, where he often responds to commenters—especially of the Islamist and Arab nationalist variety—is also a menu of his appetites for, among others, women, food, drink, and freedom. A supporter of the freedom agenda in the Middle East before there was a Freedom Agenda, it is hardly surprising that Sandmonkey went to the streets last week in Cairo with thousands of other Egyptians to demand his freedom. His blog is now down and we have word from Egypt that he was arrested and beaten and now, according to his account here in the Guardian, released. 

Sandmonkey's blog seems to be back online.
